Hercules Tries to Fly
After I sketched a storyboard for my new idea, "Hercules Tries to Fly" I created 4 new symbols which are these 4 words. I created movie clip symbols and had them each animate in on different layers. I added Slow easing so the words did not come in so fast. The "Fly" tween made the word "FLY" get bigger. My fifth tween was a motion tween as well. I used it to fade in the background. Happy with my intro, I created the elephant. I created him in a fasion similar to that of my dino. I created the body, converted it to a movie clip. Next, I created the front leg, and the back and coverted them to movie clips. Also, I think I originally made the head and tail into symbols too, but it was too hard to get them all to stick on the body. So I creayed a symbol called "Body_all" with the head and ears added in. The tail never made the cut for the final production, but it is in my library. hmm... I added an audio clip to the symbol "FLY."

Lastly, and most difficultly, I added the buttons. I had a challenge with this because I had folders for my elephant and my intro. I had to take all of the elements out of folders. But the buttons still would not work. I had to bring the buttons and the link up to the top of the timeline under the actions layer.
